They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... group (IS) has claimed most suicide kabooms in Kabul in recent months. The attack comes days after a suicide bomber went kaboom!near the entrance of Afghanistan's Independent Election Commission in Kabul, killing at least one person and wounding six. A wave of election-related violence has killed or maimed hundreds across the country in recent months as the Taliban ...Arabic for students... and IS step up attacks on Afghan cops and government workers.
